This presentation will review emocha’s response to the global coronavirus pandemic.  Working with Johns Hopkins Medicine, emocha implemented a remote symptoms screening and monitoring service to identify, manage, and escalate COVID-19 symptoms. Initially launched at all Johns Hopkins affiliated hospitals for more than 38,000 healthcare workers, the program now manages Return-to-Work programs for hospitals and health systems, municipalities, public health departments, and private sector employers across the country. The presentation will describe how these lessons have translated into emocha’s remote monitoring and digital adherence programs within the context of acute, chronic, and infectious diseases through asynchronous video technology, and the shift in regulatory requirements that have changed the landscape of healthcare.  

During this presentation, participants will learn:

• How emocha rapidly launched a remote monitoring service at all Johns Hopkins affiliated hospitals for over 38,000 employees
• How the pandemic has expanded RPM codes for certain states to encourage greater use and adoption of telehealth services
• How Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) codes can be used within the context of telehealth
• How to directly improve patient care through the combination of the CDC-endorsed model of Directly Observed Therapy with technology -- and scalable human engagement
